Seventeen General Electric Transistor Specifications have been added, including Silicon Transistors, and the Registered JETEC Transistor Type Tables have been brought up to date, The greatest increase in material will be found in the Transistor Applications Chapter and in the Circuit Diagrams. A complete new chapter on Power Supplies has been added along with several power supply diagrams. This manual has been prepared to assist the service technician, hobbyist, experimenter, and ham in working with transistors, We have attempted to assemble the information necessary for an understandable working knowledge of the fundamentals and applications of transistors. The information included covers such topics as Basic Theory, Construction Techniques used to obtain the various types of transistors available, Principles of Circuit Design, and Specifications, with outline drawings, of all transistors registered with JETEC, Complete explanations of the parameter symbols used are also given. Several Circuit Diagrams, varying from simple amplifiers to high fidelity amplifiers and radios have been included. GENERAL ELECTRIC CO. SEMICONDUCTOR PRODUCTS 1224 W. GENESEE ST. SYRACUSE, N. Y.
